Rovio partners with Dreamworks to release ‘The Croods’ game

Angry Birds maker Rovio has announced a partnership with Dreamworks Animation to release the official game for the studio’s upcoming animated release “The Croods.” The game will carry the same name and will be released in Google Play on March 14.

“DreamWorks Animation’s The Croods is filled with wonderful characters and creatures in an incredibly detailed, inventive world — it was just begging for its very own mobile game!” said Petri Järvilehto, EVP of Games at Rovio Entertainment.

“This all-new game finds the Croods breaking out of the Stone Age with the use of a new r-evolutionary tool: the IDEA! The Croods will Hunt & Gather their way through spectacular new landscapes as they tame fantastic and never-seen-before creatures. Help The Croods survive the wild…and each other,” Rovio noted in a blog post.

The Croods movie is being released in threatens globally in 3D on March 22.

This is second movie-based game from Rovio Entertainment after the release of Angry Birds Rio in 2011.
